Episode #622: "Joseph of Arcadia, Part III": Life is returning to normal on Arcadia Station with the junior staff and civilians returning.  Along with the returning crew members and civilians (like Lieutenant Junior Grade Joseph Reese of the engineering department), some new crew and civilians are coming aboard as well.  Among them, the civilian Nyira Santiago, who has taken a job as waitress in the Imperial Fez Restaurant on the Promenade. Captain Sulek has decided to take the time afforded by the shuffling of crew aboard the station to call a staff meeting. To lighten the mood, Captain Sulek has asked Lieutenant Chambers to book a private room at a restaurant for the meeting and have it catered.  Chambers has booked the Imperial Fez for the staff meeting.

CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::enters Ops from his office and crosses to the TL. He looks at the staff in Ops:: All: Coming?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: Sure everything is booked as requested sir.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::falls in step with the Captain::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Yes, I saw the orders.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Grabs a PADD with her report from her desk in Engineering and wearing a multi-pocked, with few random spare parts and such in them, engineering duty uniform heads to the meeting.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: I miss anything, Sir?
EO_LtJG_Reese says:
::enters the main dining area of the Imperial Fez and heads up to the bar to take a seat::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::TL doors opens:: Computer: Promenade
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Takes TL to Promenade::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: hunting down her husband.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Nothing I can think of.
CSO_LtCmdr_Starr says:
::waiting to see if Captain Sulek will hand the conn over to someone else or leave Lt. Cmdr. Starr in charge of OPS::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: Oh good. ::relaxes visibly::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Makes notations and studies engineering diagnostic results as she travels.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::holding the door:: Starr: You are expected as well. The duty officer has this.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Still wrapping up some figurative paperwork in the security office, oblivious to the time ::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: Arriving at her husband's office, she nods to some of his security personnel as she makes her way in.::
CSO_LtCmdr_Starr says:
::turns towards the Captain, straightening his uniform and nods:: CO:As you wish sir. ::waddles towards the door the captain is holding open::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Arrives at the Imperial and looks around trying to see if she can see the others yet, not entirely sure where in here they will meet.::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Senses motion in his vision and glances up :: CNS: What's going on?
CIV_Nyira says:
::Slides through the tables gracefully caring a tray of food. Thinking to herself "So many new people" as she looks around the restaurant "I wonder what I can do for them and what they can do for me" she smiles to herself as she arives at a table::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::as Starr enters, he allows the doors to slide closed, and the turbolift begins it journey to the promenade ::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::follows quietly but wondering just how disappointed Starr is that he must attend a meeting in a dance club::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: For a few moments she watches him. With his head bowed over his work, she notices a few grey hairs. She smiled. To humans, it supposedly made a man more distinguished. At the same time, it made her sad as it reminded her of the differences of their life spans.:: CSec: Coming to get you so we are both late.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Glances around :: CNS: ... already? You could have called, you know.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: I realize I choose a dance club, but I assure you there will be no dancer unless we request them it will be a private room.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
:: Sulek, his small party in tow makes his way into the promenade:: Chambers: And the Imperial Fez is where?
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Dancing will be optional after the meeting, I think.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Continues to wait by the door for the others to arrive, not seeing them yet.::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
CSec: True, but I wanted to walk with you.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::points to the flashy sign:: CO: Main Promenade to the right sir, just over there.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: Of course sir
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
CNS: Alright, alright... :: shuts down his terminal, saving what he was working on :: Let's go, before Sulek gets the chance to tell us HOW late we are.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he looks at the garish sign:: Chambers: Interesting choice. Is it popular with personnel?
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Going to give it another few minutes then is planning on sitting down and ordering something...::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Sees the others and nods to them, joining the group.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: I have not visited myself sir save this morning when I make the arrangements. Scuttlebutt is that they offer unreplicated goods and the entertainment is not bad for a Federation Outpost.
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: smiling she exits the room with him and heads toward the lift.:: CO: He will not tell us that.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he leads off towards the club:: Starr: I've always found this particular custom a bit baffling, but it does seem to have good effect on morale.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::arrives at the entrance just ahead of the CO looking for a host::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::coming up from back::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: As the lift arrived, she stepped in and ordered it to the promenade ::
CIV_Nyira says:
::after unloading the tray of food at the table she smiles winningly at the occupants as she turns to leave she sees a uniformed officer and walks over to her:: CEO: Hello and welcome to Imperial Fez. Are you with the private party?
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he pauses and waits patiently::
CSO_LtCmdr_Starr says:
CO: Indeed. I fail to see the purpose that one would have for holding a staff meeting in a venue such as this. To use a phrase from your culture, it is not logical.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Starr: Indeed
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Nods and smiles at the waitress, pointing to the Captain.::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
CSec: Do you have most things in order?
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps off and heads down the hall toward the restaurant.::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
Nyira: And there is the rest of the group...or at least most of them.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he sees Takor and nudges Chambers::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: I think we are to await a host.. I am sure it will only be a moment
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Nods to the Captain and others.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::notices Takor but remains where he is::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
CNS: I think so....
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: I believe the CEO has found our establishment guide.
CIV_Nyira says:
::smiling:: CEO: ah ok. All: If you'd please fallow me we have a private room all ready for you. ::turns walking towards the back of the Restaurant::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Follows their host::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he moves past Chambers and to Takor and Nyria::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::smiles and follows:: CIV: Thank you for accommodating a large party on short notice::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
CSec: I have rearranged and settled all my patients. :: enters the place and smiles at the host as they are directed toward the back.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::can't resist a look around as they walk to the back to see if there is any entertainment out::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
ALL: Lively place.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::they enter the room and he selects a chair at the far end:: Nyria: We will order shortly, but first we have business. If you will see that we are left undisturbed.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Looks up from her PADD:: ALL: Yes don't think I've had a chance to come here yet but nice.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Finds a seat and sits down about middle of the table.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::finds a seat::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he stands behind the chair and waits for the staff to enter:: Starr: Will a chair suffice or perhaps a stool?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::sits next to Takor::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: Arriving she smiles at Sulek:: CO: Captain.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CEO: Hi Chief
CSO_LtCmdr_Starr says:
CO: A regular chair at your right hand, same as any other meeting will suffice.
CIV_Nyira says:
CO: Of Course Please don't hesitate to request anything ::she stresses anything:: I am here to accommodate your every need ::she smiles and leaves::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Azhure: Counselor. ::seeing Powers:: Good you could get your husband out for a bit.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
OPS: Hello. ::Smiles a greeting:: Odd place for a meeting...::Hears the waitress and blinks, just what kind of place was this. Really has to get out more.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Starr: Very well then.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
CO: Come now, Captain, we just saw each other several hours ago.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: She is sweet motioning toward Nyira as she leaves. Don't think I have seen her before though.
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: smiles:: CSec: I believe he means away from duty.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Powers: All, too true, Commander.
EO_LtJG_Reese says:
::sitting at the bar waiting to be served::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Indeed. I had not noticed.
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: orders a fruit drink from the waiter and turns toward Bill to see if he wanted anything.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
All: The meeting shall be brief, but the aftermath shall take some time more. Shall we begin?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::after he settles in he looks toward the Captain with complete attention::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Just looks at the Captain as if to say, "You're the Captain we start when you say." but says nothing.::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: Takes a seat.::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Shakes his head ::
CIV_Nyira says:
::she heads to the bar she places the empty tray she is still holding behind the bar then turns with a slight flourish of her long purple hair to smile at the gentleman at the bar:: Reese: Hello there ::smiles:: what can I get for you
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
All: Every so often good news comes from Command. Today is such an occasion. It is my duty and honor to share it with you today.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Looks attentive even as a small part of her mind is turning over schematics and improvement ideas in her head.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Powers: Commander Powers, please step forward.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Breathes a silent sigh of relief it's not her.::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Looks curious :: CO: Captain?
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Powers: Many the times has your knowledge and strategic planning been greatly appreciated. I am glad to see that Starfleet finally agrees with me.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::looks to Powers::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Looks at Commander Powers and the Captain.::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: smiles proudly at her husband.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Powers:::Picking up a small case he opens it:: I am pleased to present to you the medal of meritorious service for your strategic planning in dealing with the pirates that have caused us problems of late and your input on dealing with the shield mines. Well done. :: he hangs the medal around Powers' neck.::
EO_LtJG_Reese says:
::shyly looks at the pretty waitress and then away:: Nyira: Um… I'd like a synthehol please
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
CO: Thank you, Captain.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Powers: My pleasure.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::applauds::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Claps palm of one hand against back of other in Bajoran fashion ::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: thanks the waiter for her drink and puts it down to add to the applaud.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Takor: Ensign Takor, please step forward
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
CO: I what?
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Stands and comes over puzzled and a little concerned.::
CNS_Cmdr_Azhure says:
:: as he takes his seat she leans closer to quietly speak:: CSec: Congratulations, hon.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Takor: It is both in appropriate for the CEO to remain an ensign, especially one of your talent. I pleased to promote you to the rank of Lieutenant junior grade with all the rights and privileges of that rank.
CIV_Nyira says:
::she smiles noticing his shyness:: Reese: sure thing ::she grabs a glass and pours the synthehol from a curved bottle:: Reese: Is there anything else I can do for you? ::she winks at him as she sets the glass in front of him::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Looks stunned and a bit like "well can't screw up now"::CO: Thank You Sir.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::Puts pip on CEO's collar::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Stands still at attention::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CEO: Congratulations Lt. JG you are almost a flag officer. No serious though I wondered what took the brass so long on this one.

EO_LtJG_Reese says:

OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::blinks but stands slowly looks at the Captain then approaches::
